Yeah, I think there is TE value later. Picking up a potential starting ILB was a better value at that spot in my opinion.
Asamoah is a starter? Probably not for a couple years. I like him, just thought he was someone we could have landed in round 4. It always seems like Oklahoma defensive players usually don't seem to live up to the hype. Hope that's not the case here.

Sorry, I should have said future starter.

So what's left?

Tight end is now the biggest need. Maybe take a WR at some point? A tackle? Another corner? Would like to see a d-lineman to add some depth there. Amare Barno is an intriguing DE prospect. Dominique Robinson is another. A lot of WRs are gone already. I like Heiligh out of Coastal Carolina as a later round sleeper.

Any particular players you guys are hoping to get?

In all honesty, they probably just go best player available with their last 5 picks.

Cyclones can fill some holes.

Kolar or Allen at TE (or another TE I guess).
Enyi would be nice depth as a 3-4 DE.
I'd go another interior OL.
Best Edge Rusher they can find.
Lets go with Brock Purdy in RD 7.

Edge Kingsley Enagbare is easily the top rated guy on PFF's board, but I hope the Vikes take Charlie here.

Vikings started the draft with 3 picks in the first 4 rounds. They ended up with 5 guys in the first 4 rounds.

They started with 1 5th round pick, 3 6th round picks and 1 7th round pick. They now have 2 5th's, 2 6th's and 1 7th.

Can argue that they are just trading down and getting a bigger volume of picks.

Not many difference makers to be found in those rounds.
